Welcome to celebrate spring's carnival at Boulderkeskus! 

Tueday's Training groups will go outdoor climbing in May! 

Pasila’s Tuesday Training group will have two outdoor bouldering sessions in May: Tue 2.5. and Tue 9.5. The groups will meet at the usual times on both days, at 17.00 - 19.00 and 19.00 - 21.00. On May 2nd, the group will climb at Taivaskallio in Käpylä (meeting place at Keulamuuri) and on May 9th in Meilahti (meeting place at the Main Wall). No need to sign up, just come along! One session’s price is 10€ (you can pay it beforehand at the gym or via our webshop). If the weather is terrible, the Training groups will meet in Pasila as usual. Take your own climbing shoes with you and extra crash pads won’t hurt either! Warmly welcome!

BK CUP 5/2023 at BK Herttoniemi on May 12th 

May’s BK Cup will be on May 12th at BK Herttoniemi. The comp starts at 18.00. BK CUP is a competition open to everyone, where annual members compete for free and other climbers for a small fee of 10 euros (+ entrance fee)! The prizes are epic: the best will win an annual membership and great prizes will be drawn among all participants!

More information about the comp and registration available here.

Everyone is welcome - you don't have to be an experienced competition champion to participate: these comps are a great way to increase your competition experience and get to know the world of competitive climbing in a relaxed way. Participating is also a great way to get to know fellow climbers!
